Branch Line, Main Line, and Yard Track Programs

Vegetation control in track areas is important in your effort to maintain the entire track structure.

DBi Services has a large fleet of hi-rail and off-track trucks strategically located throughout the United States to service all regions.

Vegetation control can help your operation in a number of important ways:

Ballast Areas

• Allowing ties, fastenings and switches to be inspected
• Increasing the life of ties
• Preventing wheel slippage

Shoulders and Areas Adjacent to Ballast
